    Default quick question on lighting when i flip to 12/12

    hey guys my buddys been giving me some advise on how to go about things but i feel he may be wrong about some things, when i flip my plants into 12/12 he always says to lift my light up as high as it goes in the tent, my tent is 7ft tall and the light can go 5/hf feet from ground level as it needs space above, so my question is do you think this is not the way to do it??? should i be keeping the light 20-24 inches away the whole grow?? i use a 600W hps

    What light source are you using prior to the flip?

    By the sound of this " advice" it's a good job you're here lol. Putting a nail, or stabbing the main stem has been known to be done by some, but only in the last few days if flower. It stresses the plant out and it produces more resins.... Apparently.
